Prince Ren felt something was odd about the stranger he met the day before, the guards told him he was a traveller but something within him seems to disagree with the occupation.
The man he saw looked more like a fighter than a traveller, and somehow he felt drawn to him more than he should.
--------------——————————–--------------
Ryuu knew he was not going to leave the village so he made his way to the Chief's house and demanded for a place to live, he promised he was not going to stay for long.
However, he knew he has to avoid the Royal blood because he felt he might be a threat to him.
Ryuu tried his best to conceal his Identity as a trained warrior but he could not completely avoid fighting.

" Let me go, please" A lady begged the two guys that ambushed her
"I told you I wanted you but you turned deaf ears" One of the guys said
"I am keeping myself for my husband, please do not take it from me, please"
"Your husband indeed"
The one that seem to be the leader signaled to the other and they attempted to drag the lady when Ryuu stopped them.
"Leave her alone" He said startling them.
"Hey, leave here right now before I pounce on you"
"Who are you to interrupt me" The leader said
"This is the new stranger that got into town"
"A stranger??" The leader laughed "and you dare to interrupt me?, I'll deal with you" He said while picking his sword.
Ryuu signalled to the lady to come behind him, after putting her in a safe corner, he dared the guys to come at him. Using he Bloom guide skills, he dodged their attempts and finally striked the leader with his sword.
The other guy shivered at the sight and fell down pleading for his life.
"Why should I let you go?" Ryuu asked him calmly
"Please, I was just following his commands, spare me please" He begged.
Ryuu put back his sword and signalled to him to take his wounded friend and leave. After they left, he turned to the lady.
" Where are you going?"
"I was going to the Chief's house, his son is my fiancee" The lady replied gratefully
" Alright, be very careful next time, I'll be on my way"
"Wait, please follow me to my destination in case they come back, I beg you" The lady pleaded
"Lead the way".
As Ryuu left with the lady, Prince Ren came out from among the bushes, he has paid the village actors to pull off that small act, he wanted to be sure the man he caught training by the shore was Ryuu.
And now, he is double sure that Ryuu is not a traveller but a fighter.
